Get a Following: How to Get a Record Deal

Hello! On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Barry Bergman and today I am going to give you tips on how to get a record deal. I think it is very important in wanting to get signed to develop a live following. I t is very important to play out locally and regionally are as far out as your can go because the more people you get excited about your music and the more you build it organically, the better your chances for something to take place. You should also press some records up while you are trying to get signed in an effort to sell these records to help support this little tour that you are doing. You can also make some T-shirts such as this one over here that my client Billy Hobby had made and you know this way you could have some merchandise to kind of help subsidize the expenses.
